Residential and business water treatment systems. Water softeners, UV lights. We will analyze your water for contaminants such as chlorine, low pH, iron, bacteria, and devise a system to suit your needs. Treat your water from the source, as it enters your home, so whether you are drinking it, cooking with it or bathing in it, your water is pure.

"The process was quick and easy. I just provided a water sample. It was determined that I had high levels of chlorine in our drinking water. I was able to solve my water problems with only one filter. Why did I wait years to have this done? Now I can be confident that our water is safe. Highly recommended."

Benjamin Franklin Plumbing is a family owned and operated plumbing company servicing Cedar Rapids, Iowa City, Davenport, and Waterloo- and all areas in between. We offer 24 hour emergency service and your phone call will always be answered by a live person. Each of our technicians is background checked and drug tested to insure that we are sending safe individuals into your home. When they arrive, they will always be dressed in a clean uniform with a tucked-in shirt and will put shoe covers on over their boots before coming into your home. They are also sure to clean up any messes that may be created during a repair. Our technicians will arrive in a full stocked truck when they come to your home for a repair. This allows them to complete almost any job without having to "run out to get parts". It also gives them the benefit of being able to look each concern over, give you all of your options, and give you straight forward pricing for each option- all before they begin their work. This is to help you make an informed decision on how you would like them to proceed. We always try to the best of our ability to work with your schedule when booking an appointment, and in most areas we offer extended business hours during the week and do have appointments available on the weekends (including Sundays). Call today to schedule your plumbing repair, and mention you saw us on Angie's List to receive a $25 repair discount.

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Yes, a water softener can remove scale deposits. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, after you add a water softener to your home, “gradually the softer water will dissolve limescale scale deposits and remove the problem entirely.” Installing a water softener—or water descaler—will also help prevent new scale deposits from forming.

Yes, it is safe to bathe in yellow water. The iron or tannin content won’t harm your skin, and soap will clean you whether your water is clear or yellow. If you find bathing in yellow water problematic, you can ask a pro to inspect your plumbing and determine how to get your water clear again.

The most accurate way to determine whether you have hard water is to purchase a water test kit from a hardware store or send a tap water sample to a lab. But there are some signs you can look out for without professional testing. For instance, if you're consistently dealing with mineral stains on your glassware, windows, and shower doors, you're likely to have hard water. Hard water can also make it harder to lather and rinse soap, so if you're struggling to work up a good lather in the shower, hard water might be the culprit.

If your ‘do isn’t doing what you want it to do despite using good hair care products, hard water might be to blame. Since hard water can’t rinse soap off as well as soft water can, your hair might grow limp because of the shampoo and conditioner residue that’s left behind. If you color your hair, you might see it fade more quickly or even turn a different shade as the dye reacts with the minerals in the water. You might also experience an itchy scalp, thanks to the dryness that comes from bathing in the hard water.

No, hard water isn’t dangerous. The added calcium in hard water can contribute to good bone health. However, it can also cause dry skin and hair. If you have dry skin or hair, consider using a water-softening system to help minimize the minerals in your water. Plus, these systems can also add some sodium to your diet.
